Your camera JPG is produced using Nikon's secret and special 'sauce' and achieving an identical result would be difficult. People who shoot RAW files generally believe that they can hand craft a result that is at least similar but probably better than that which the camera manufacturer can offer. We all have differing opinions regarding how our images should look and the Nikon look does not appeal to all tastes. Learning RAW processing in darktable is complex, it takes time and effort but the results can be far more rewarding than that which the camera manufacturer can offer.

Bruce Williams has produced a fine and extensive set of on-line videos explaining various darktable elements. Check them out.

I cannot manage to achieve the same colours, playing with the colour
balance did not help because it turned too much "reddish" the whole
picture. Any idea?

Thank you for your time
